Embarrassed and in pain, Google provided no help.

I'm a fire insurance adjuster and while taking a shower, trying to get the nasty smoke smell off of me (it NEVER goes away!), I got a loose sliver of Dove bar soap jammed into my right ear.
I accidentally pushed it in deeper with Q-tips. Yes, i know it's soap and should dissolve eventually, but it's very painful, I can't hear and my entire head feels like a balloon. Today's shower made it worse!
I've tried ear wax remover drops, Q-tips, water. My DH can't see anything.
Any suggestions?? Wait it out? I don't want to go to doctor, either.
